Description

A sorcerer from Vinheim Dragon School. He came to Lordran in search of his master, Big Hat Logan, who has departed from Vinheim in his search for knowledge.

Location

Lower Undead Burg
In a locked room at the bottom of the Undead Burg. To reach the bottom the player can unlock the door (using the Residence Key) next to the dragon bridge, after the Taurus Demon boss battle. After climbing down the long ladder, keep going forward, descending the staircase where you might be attacked by two Undead Attack Dogs. After the staircase, make a U-turn to the right, then hug the left wall. You'll hear Griggs shouting for help when you're near the correct door. The door to Griggs is opened with the Residence Key. It cannot be unlocked with the Master Key, despite it unlocking several other doors that the Residence Key also unlocks. Unlock the door and go into the room and talk to (rescue) Griggs.

Sen's Fortress
Upon buying all spells and rings from Griggs, when you return to the room where you pick up the Black Sorcerer Set, a hollowed Griggs will be there. This way you can get Griggs' drop without sinning.

Use

Sells basic Sorceries and Sorcery-related items only when your INT stat is at least 10 points.

Equipments

Drops

Notes

In the initial room where Griggs is trapped, is a body in a barrel on the right hand side with a Sorcerer Armor Set and Sorcerer's Catalyst. Be careful breaking the barrels in the room because you can hit Griggs and turn him hostile. Rolling (dodging) can be used to break scenery without hurting NPCs.

Bugs

If Griggs' storyline is finished and he is killed in Sen's fortress, there is a possibility that he will appear in the first room where you initially meet him but, you will not be able to speak with him. Humanity can still be drained from him, however.

There is also a possibility of Griggs appearing in the first room you find him in, with the same restrictions as mentioned above, if killed prematurely.

Dialogue

Lower Undead Burg

In front of the door in Lower Undead Burg
Somebody! Please, let me out of here!
Somebody, anybody!
Help me! Unlock the door!
…Damn…
…I'm finished…
How did this ever happen…

Speak to him after you open the door

Brilliant! You opened the door for me!
Thank you; Im am saved. I thought I might never escape.
I am Griggs of Vinheim. A sorcerer of the school.
I am much obliged for your assistance.
Thanks to you, I may now resume my travels.

Oh, hello.
I am fine. I will rest a while, then return to Firelink Shrine.
I have my sorcery. And I will be more cautious next time.
Besides, I have an important task at hand.

Firelink Shrine

Speak to him if you have at least 10 points in Intelligence
Oh, hello.
I regret meeting you under such compromising circumstances.
At least we both made it back unscathed.
Incidentally, would you care to learn any sorceries?
You're clearly talented, and besides, I owe you.
Of course, we will require some materials, but I am happy to teach you some elementary spells. Are you interested?

Answer "yes"
Splendid! Very well!
I am pleased to have a chance to give something back.
Well, then let's get started straight away.

Answer "no"
Yes, I see… It is regrettable, but to each his own. If you change your mind, do not be bashful.

Speak to him if your Intelligence is below 10 points
Oh, hello.
Terrific to see us both in one piece.
And prey that you never go hollow.

Greeting
Oh, hello.
Well you certainly are keeping at it.
Myself? I'm fine.
Lets get started straight away.

Using "Talk" option
It's not that I am concerned for Master Logan's welfare.
Even in this treacherous land, Logan's skills are unmatched. He is a true hero.
…No, the reason I seek Logan is…
…Well, it's really my own conceit, now isn't it?

Leaving
Good-bye, then.
Do stay safe.

Leaving after you buy something from him
All right. That'll do it.
That should help you on your journey.
May we meet again.

After Reah arrives at Firelink Shrine
Did you see them?
The three young clerics…
headed for the Catacombs, to seek Kindling.
Kindling is the art of feeding bonfires.
The poor young girl, sent down into a tomb.
What a terrible mission she is burdened with.

Logan arrives at Firelink Shrine

Speak to him

Oh, hello again! I was waiting to tell you… Master Logan has returned!
And he tells me that he has you to thank! Well, we are both in your debt, now.
Thank you, sincerely. He's just over there. Go along and have a chat.

Oh, hello.
I appreciate the attention, but you really should speak to Master Logan.
That will certainly do you more good.

Using "Talk" option

Have you spoken to Master Logan?
He is an accomplished scholar. The arts of sorcery would never have come this far without his contributions.
And he has the nerve to go risking life and limb! What a stubborn old fellow.
Hah hah hah hah!

Have you tried using one of Logan's sorceries yet?
Exhilarating, is it not?
As he sees it, there are no gods, no transcendence, only truth, and Logan wishes to elucidate it.
It is this heretical methodology that has allowed Logan to advance sorcery to the point that he has.
In a word, he is a hero. Despite the awful rumors.
Time will tell, the annals of history will prove dispassionate.

Logan leaves Firelink Shrine

Speak to him
Oh, there you are! Just so you know…
Master Logan has left on his own again.
It seems that he is still determined to find the famed Regal Archives in Anor Londo.
I intend to search for him. Only, before I leave, there is one thing I wish to do.
You see, Master Logan has left most of his books.
With them, I could teach you Logan's sorcery.
… You have done much to assist me.
Before I leave on this journey, I will teach you all that Logan has to share.

Greeting
Oh, hello, you made it!
Then, let us begin.
As promised, I shall bequeath Master Logan's sorcery to you.

When attacked without made hostile

Uwwah!

Heavens!

In the name of sanity!

Cease! Have you gone mad?

When attacked and made hostile
Curses, you leave me no choice!
You aren't yourself any more.
Forgive me!
